title = "Theory and numerical modelling of parity-time symmetric structures in photonics: Introduction and grating structures in one dimension",
abstract = "A class of structures based on PT -symmetric Bragg gratings in the presence of both gain and loss is studied. The basic concepts and properties of parity and time reversal in one-dimensional structures that possess idealised material properties are given. The impact of realistic material properties on the behaviour of these devices is then investigated. Further extension to include material non-linearity is used to study an innovative all-optical memory device.",
